I got this recipe from my friend, Dinaz, who got it from Betty Crocker. Both of us made a few changes.

I added peanut butter to the chocolate because … it keeps the chocolate soft and keeps the hubby, my Peanut Butter Man, happy 🙂 If you don’t want peanut butter … just leave it out … it still tastes great.

This recipe goes together very quickly and easily. Because of this … I have one word of advise … DO NOT TRY TO MAKE S’MORES BARS AND MULTI-TASK!!! I will explain later.

This is what you will need …

Sugar Cookie mix

Graham Cracker Crumbs

Milk Chocolate Chips

Butter

Peanut Butter

Mini Marshmallows

Combine the cookie mix and graham cracker crumbs …

Stir in melted butter …

Smoosh (that’s a technical term :)) or spread in pan and bake …

WARNING – DO NOT talk on the phone with your friend, Cathy, and forget to set the timer or to take a photo of the baked crust 🙂

While the crust is baking, add peanut butter to chocolate chips …

Microwave for about 1 minute and stir …

Spread chocolate mixture on baked crust that was baked a few minutes too long … because I was on the phone and forgot to set the timer … unless you like it crispy …

Sprinkle marshmallows over chocolate and put in the oven on broil …

MY FINAL WARNING – DO NOT TALK ON THE PHONE WITH YOU FRIEND WHILE TALKING TO THE HUBBY IN THE LIVING ROOM AND HAVE MARSHMALLOWS IN THE BROILER! Multi tasking is not always a good thing …

I should have been watching the toasting a little more carefully … I wanted even toasting … on the other hand … maybe I made everyone happy … some of my guys like marshmallows that are REALLY toasty 😉

For the record … the hubby wants his bars cold … Son #2 wants no marshmallows … Son #3 thought they were too crispy … I need to stop multi tasking while baking 😉

Bake 13-18 minutes or until set. The longer you bake the crust … the crispier it becomes and almost toffee like.

Add chocolate chips and peanut butter to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for about 1 minute on high and stir. Pour peanut butter/chocolate mixture over crust and spread evenly over crust.

Set oven control to broil. Sprinkle marshmallows over melted chocolate. Broil with top 5 to 6 inches from heat 20 to 30 seconds or until marshmallows are toasted. (Watch closely; marshmallows will brown quickly.) Cool 10 minutes, cut and serve or cool completely and store tightly covered.

I did place some room temperature bars in the microwave for 15 seconds. That made the chocolate melty and the marshmallows puff up …

I was lucky enough to have an incredible neighbor deliver one of these to me yesterday. I am eating centimeter (approx. 1/4 inch) slices at a time – totally delicious!!! If you want to make someone happy, make them some of these!
